Radiohead because they're more experimental than the beatles ever were :)

 

I must say I disagree with that statement. Look at the comparissons to music before and after Sgt. Peppers. There was nothing like it before it and it influenced a generation.

 

I don't disagree that Radiohead are experimental, but saying that The Beatles weren't is a bit of a poor call. So many bands wouldn't be around right now, one of almost definitely being Radiohead (although probably not directly), if not for The Beatles.

 

And I do realise that you said that Radiohead were more experimental and not that the Beatles weren't experimental at all, but The Beatles were almost definitely more experimental than Radiohead. They were pretty much the first band to use any electronica and synthetic effects.

 

Don't get me wrong, I like Radiohead and The Beatles pretty evenly (maybe even Radiohead more).

AHHH wtf is going on people?!? Start voting for Radiohead I can't see them lose!!!

it's not about who is the best, it's about who do you enjoy more. i think many people misunderstood this competition

it's not about who is the best' date=' it's about who do you enjoy more. i think many people misunderstood this competition[/quote']

 

Which is exactly why I voted Radiohead. C'mon guys, I had you going all the way!

i understand it very good and the best for me is clearly the one i enjoy the most. Of course there is no band that is considered 'the best band' for everyone.

^ yeap true

 

i think Beatles are gonna win the whole WC what is a bit surprise for me considering that Radiohead, Muse or U2 have bigger fanbases on this site IMO

yeah well .. i think when people are in doubt they'll more chose a band like The Beatles than a band like Radiohead. The Beatles are just .. i dunno, too famous.

Radiohead but only because I have been listening to them more recently, that was seriously hard.

I just think The Beatles are a bit boring :uhoh:

 

hmm, don't think so.

 

i really enjoy them, many Beatles albums belong to my favourites of all time ;)

wow the beatles have made a comeback since i saw the results last.....but not suprising

^ yeap true

i am shocked :stunned: that The Beatles are leading this ...

 

you're right .. i don't think i can remember seeing a Beatles thread on this site, but their fans seem to have come from nowhere?! ...

 

i thought Radiohead would win this match hands down.

 

The Beatles V U2 in the final?! .. thats a shocker!!

This is definitely a bit screwed up. I voted for The Beatles, but I didn't think they would win! Wow... they are now winning by 8 votes..

 

Nik, I thought you were gonna make it public?

Why everyone find so shocking Beatles are winning...to me it's quite..normal :confused:

And if no one here ever speaks about them it's just because they're not publishing records anymore...and we can see that we don't talk too much about Coldplay neither now that the album has been out for more than a year and the tour is just over.

People talk more about Radiohead now because of the album to be released, because Tom York released his album, but if there's nothing new from a band it's not so weird if no one talks about it ;)
